Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Chance Encounter
Actually, The Matriarch’s adopted son was also very frustrated; he originally planned to handle things quietly, considering The Matriarch’s reputation.
He didn’t want to be accused of forcibly abducting a civilian girl, especially after having paid The Matriarch protection money.
But he could never have imagined that Luo Ziyi would be so cunning. He had waited on the road to the airport for a long time, but Luo Ziyi didn’t even show her face.
If he hadn’t received a tip-off, he wouldn’t even have known that Luo Ziyi had escaped by sea!
Enraged and embarrassed, he ripped off the mask of civility and led his men straight to the port, where he shouted and threatened the already departing cargo ship.
Sure enough, fearing trouble, the ship’s crew obediently turned the vessel around.
"Miss Yi, hide quickly!" Ah Qin hastily said. "I’ll jump into the sea, they’ll definitely think it’s you who escaped!"
Luo Ziyi quickly grabbed Ah Qin’s hand, shaking her head. "Ah Qin, I’m calling my grandfather right now to have him use all his connections to save me. Don’t throw your life away."
"Is that so.....all right." Ah Qin abandoned the idea of jumping into the sea and waited for Luo Ziyi to make the call.
"Grandpa..." Luo Ziyi immediately called her grandfather, informing him of the situation.
Mr. Luo Sr. listened without comment, and after a long while finally spoke, "If you were to marry that man, the son of The Matriarch, would our operations in the Southern Ocean be secure and even expand?"
Luo Ziyi didn’t answer her grandfather’s question and hung up the phone.
Indeed, she should have harbored no hope for that old man who saw nothing but profit.
If her own grandfather didn’t want to save her, who else could she turn to? Yang Yu?
Luo Ziyi gave a bitter smile, grabbed her phone, and made a call to Yang Yu. "Hello, Yang Yu, I need to tell you something."
Yang Yu, far away in Tianhai City, was somewhat stunned. "What’s wrong with you?"
"If something happens to me in the Southern Ocean, all my money belongs to you."
"Something happen? What happened?" Yang Yu said seriously, "You try everything to stay alive. I’m coming right now to save you!"
"Save me?" Luo Ziyi felt a surge of emotion, and tears involuntarily fell. "I’m not even someone to you, is it necessary?"
"After all, you’re a business partner!" Yang Yu said. "You’re my investor. If I can’t even protect my own investor, who would dare to cooperate with me in the future?"
Luo Ziyi laughed. "I don’t remember there being such a thing as protecting investors in business."
"Though it’s not a hard and fast rule, helping one’s partner within one’s capacity should be natural, right?" Yang Yu replied. "Stop talking nonsense. What exactly happened?"
"No need." Luo Ziyi smiled faintly. "It’s too late now. I don’t want my body to be tainted by that disgusting creature. Yang Yu, thank you for letting me see that relationships between people aren’t purely about benefits. Goodbye."
Luo Ziyi hung up the call, and Yang Yu called back immediately, only to be blocked by Luo Ziyi.
"Ah Qin, I’m going to jump into the sea. You live well." Luo Ziyi patted her bodyguard’s shoulder. "You’ve been with me so long, and I’ve given you so little. Let this be my repayment."
Ah Qin stood there stunned: "Miss Yi..."
"Hey, the Yang Yu you just called, is that Yang Yu from Tianhai City?" A lazy voice came from behind Luo Ziyi. She turned to see a very young man staring at her curiously, waiting for her response.
"Yes." Luo Ziyi answered bluntly, "Are you his enemy? Then just give me a quick end."
"A rival, not really, just a sparring partner," Tu Sha sized up Luo Ziyi. "If I save you, do you think he would agree to a not-too-excessive request of mine?"
"Well..." Luo Ziyi felt somewhat helpless. "You’ll have to ask him."
"No problem," Tu Sha immediately made a call to Yang Yu. "Hey, Yang Yu, got something to discuss with you..."
Upon hearing that Tu Sha was with Luo Ziyi, Yang Yu immediately said, "Sure, what’s your request?"
"Changing our annual duel to once every six months," Tu Sha said. "Don’t mention a year, even five years or ten years might not be enough to find a rival like you. What’s the point of sharpening my blade if I can’t find another opponent on your level? It would be better to spar with you every six months to improve much faster."
"I thought it was something serious!" Yang Yu scoffed. "Bring Luo Ziyi back safe and you can have a match with me right away. By the way, I’m short-staffed recently; if you can get back and help me by next week, I’ll give you another bout at a time of your choosing."
"Really?" Tu Sha’s eyes lit up. "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring your woman back in advance!"
Tu Sha hung up the phone and calmly said to Luo Ziyi, "Don’t worry, you won’t need to jump into the sea. I’m taking you back to Tianhai City..."
"Miss Luo, so you were here," The Matriarch’s adopted son Johnny approached with a group of bodyguards, chuckling sinisterly. "Why would you run? My godfather just called your grandfather, and he agreed to marry you to me. From now on, we’re family. All city venues in the Southern Ocean are open for the Luo family to develop — how’s that for a sincere dowry?"
"Are you done talking nonsense?" Tu Sha glared at Johnny. "You’re clearly Asian, yet you insist on dyeing your hair like Westerners with blonde hair. How inferior must you feel about your own race?"
"Who’s this random mutt!" Johnny glared. "Kill him..."
Whoosh!
All they saw was a flash of white light, and then Johnny’s head soared into the air.
By the time the bodyguards snapped back to reality, Johnny’s head had already fallen into the sea and was floating on the surface.
"He killed Mr. Johnny!"
"Take him down!"
The group of bodyguards, eyes red with rage, roared loudly and aimed their guns at Tu Sha.
In their eyes, this man was fearsome yet still no match for The Matriarch.
This man might kill them, but if they didn’t act, The Matriarch would slaughter their families!
Tu Sha never wantonly killed the innocent, but he didn’t mind killing in general.
Since these men were seeking their own deaths, he wasn’t going to be polite.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
In just a second, those dozen bodyguards were all beheaded, their heads joining the rest in the sea!
Even Luo Ziyi, who had seen many things, couldn’t help but be shocked by Tu Sha’s method.
This guy beheaded people without any psychological burden, just as a chef casually chops vegetables — utterly ruthless!
Splash, splash...
Tu Sha casually kicked the bodies into the sea, then turned and said to Luo Ziyi, "Whether you want your bodyguards dead or alive, that’s your call."
